TOPICS ON GREEK HISTORY 



EXPLANATIONS 

This list of topics is the result of many years ^ experience in 
teaching ancient history in classes preparing for college entrance 
examinations. From quite small beginnings the list has grown to 
its present form. The compiler has been assured that it would 
be of service to others engaged in the same work, or in the study 
of Greek history for any purpose. This is the only excuse for 
publishing. 

It is claimed for the list : 

1. That it presents a full and systematic scheme for the study 
of Greek history by the topical method. 

2. That it is adapted for use in accordance with the recom- 
mendations of the Conference Report in History in the Report 
of the Committee of Ten, and also of that of the report of the 
Conference on History made to the New England Association of 
Colleges and Preparatory Schools in 1895, of tae report of the 
University Conference on Uniform Entrance Requirements made in 
1896, of the report of the Committee of Seven made in 1899, and 
with the latest entrance requirements adopted by our leading 
colleges. 

3. That the references are ample and plain, but not so precise 
as to prevent the student from learning to find his own way in 
books of reference. The number of books referred to is large. 
The object is two-fold : (1) to broaden the stu Tenths view by the 
study of the same subject as presented by different writers; (2) to 
make it possible that those whose library resources are small shall 
nevertheless find some references of which they can avail them- 
selves. Even in cases where most or all of the books are available, 

(v) 



VI EXPLANATIONS 



n 



it is not expected that each student will consult all references. 
Judicious selections and assignments made by the teacher will 
secure breadth and variety in class work. 

4. That the topics, with few exceptions, are adapted either to 
fluent recitations or to written exercises. The exceptions consist 
of lists of terms for explanation, of suggestions for map work, of 
analytical reviews, and of a geographical review. 

Even the remotest subdivisions under each head may be used as 
individual topics; but, in case a more comprehensive topic is used, 
its subdivisions will serve as an outline for the oral or written ex- 
ercise the student is to prepare. 

5. That the list may readily be used with classes of younger 
students by making omissions which the teacher can easily in- 
dicate. 

6. That the " Topics for Special Investigation " provide more 
serious work for those willing to undertake it. 

It will be noticed that in some cases the topics either overlap 
each other or are substantially identical. This is deliberately done 
with the intention either of making each topic a perfect whole in 
itself, or of teaching the student to examine the subject from dif- 
ferent points of view. 

A chronologi^/il table runs along the left of each page, and a 
geographical review is placed at the end. 

Although the compiler is aware that it is chronologically in- 
correct, it has seemed best to him to condense nearly all study of 
Greek social life, including literature and art, into one place. It is 
inserted at the close of the " Supremacy of Athens." Homeric 
subjects are, however, touched upon at the beginning, and oratory 
in the time of Demosthenes. 

A short list of historical fiction, tales, poetry and drama is in- 
serted just before the Index.

TOPICS ON ROMAN HISTORY 



EXPLANATIONS 

This list of topics is the result of many years' experience in 
teaching ancient history in classes preparing for college entrance 
examinations. From quite small beginnings the list has grown to 
its present form. The compiler has been assured that it would 
be of service to others engaged in the same work, or in the study 
of Roman history for any purpose. This is his only excuse for 
publishing. 

It is claimed for the list: 

1. That it presents a full and systematic scheme for the study 
of Roman history by the topical method. 

2. That it is adapted for use in accordance with the recom- 
mendations of the Conference Report in History in the Report 
of the Committee of Ten (1892), of the report of the Conference 
on History made to the New England Association of Colleges 
and Preparatory Schools in 1895, of the report of the University 
Conferences on Uniform Entrance Requirements made in 1896, 
of the report of the Committee of Seven made in* 1899, and with 
the latest entrance requirements adopted by our leading colleges. 

3. That the references are ample and plain, but not so precise 
as to prevent the student from learning to find his own way in 
books of reference. The number of books referred to is large. 
The object is two-fold : (1) to broaden the student's view by the 
study of the same subject as presented by different writers; (2) to 
make it possible that those whose library resources are small shall 
nevertheless find some references of which they can avail them- 
selves. Even in cases where most or all of the books are available, 
it is not expected that each student will consult all references.

VI EXPLANATIONS 



I 



Judicious selections and assignments made by the teacher will 
secure breadth and variety in class work. 

4. That the topics, with few exceptions, are adapted either to 
fluent recitations or to written exercises. The exceptions consist 
of lists of terms for explanation, of suggestions for map work, of 
analytical reviews, and of a geographical review. 

Even the remotest subdivisions under each head may be used as 
individual topics; but, in case a more comprehensive topic is used, 
its subdivisions will serve as an outline for the oral or written ex- 
ercise the student is to prepare. 

5. That the list may readily be used with classes of younger 
students by making omissions which the teacher can easily in- 
dicate. 

6. That the ^^ Topics for Special Investigation " provide more 
serious work for those willing to undertake it. 

It will be noticed that m some cases the topics either overlap 
each other or are substantially identical. This is deliberately done 
with the intention either of making each topic a perfect whole in 
itself, or of leading the student to examine the subject from dif- 
ferent points of view. 

A chronological table runs along the left of each page, and a 
geographical review is placed at the end. 

Although the compiler is aware that it is chronologically in- 
correct, it has seemed best to him to condense most of the study 
of Roman social and private life and art into one place — the 
Augustan age — and the study of literature into two places, the 
so-called Augustan and Silver Ages. 

A short list of historical fiction, tales, poetry and drama is in- 
serted before the Index.

History of Greece 



FOR HIGH SCHOOLS 
AND ACADEMIES 



By GEORGE WILLIS BOTSFORD, Ph.D. 

Instructor in the History of Greece and Rome in Harvard University 

8vo. Half Leather. $1.10 net 

"In all matters of outward form— in text-page, marginal notes, illustra- 
tions, maps, and in every point of typography— the book is distinctly superior 
to its class, and, indeed, may well serve as a model for other school-books. 
In the literary treatment of the subject, and in everything relating to a sense 
of proportion and perspective, the work is capitally well done,"— The Outlook. 

"It is . . . a scholarly treatment of the subject by one whose ample 
experience and eminent position as an educator are assurances of the excel- 
lence of his work. It would not be easy to suggest anything more to give 
completeness to this valuable volume." —Home Journal, New York City. 



A History of Rome 



TO THE BATTLE 
OF ACTIUM 



By EVELYN SHIRLEY SHUCKBURGH, M,A. 

With Maps and Plans. Small 8vo. Cloth. $1.75 

"Mr. Shuckburgh^s work is to be commended for its scholarly accuracy, 
as well as for its comprehensiveness and lucidity. As a brief manual of the 
subject it has qualities which render it superior to any of its predecessors 
in the same field." -Beacon. 

"His method of treatment is admirable, his style is clear, his grouping 
of facts accurate, and his work is in every respect, especially in arrange- 
ment, and in its exhaustive index, adapted for school-book use as well as 
for the general reader." —Boston Daily Advertiser.
